1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

introductionClear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common type of RCC and is associated with poor survival. However, the mechanisms underlying its development have not been thoroughly investigated. Semaphorin 6D (SEMA6D) is differentially expressed in various cancers, including lung adenocarcinoma and colorectal cancer. However, the role and mechanism of SEMA6D in ccRCC remain unexplored. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe obtained 25 pairs of ccRCC tissue samples and 57 urine samples from patients with ccRCC and 52 urine samples from healthy volunteers. We performed RNA sequencing and compared the results with data from The Cancer Genome Atlas database to identify our gene of interest, SEMA6D. To verify the differential expression of SEMA6D, we used real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction, immunohistochemistry, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Finally, we conducted in vitro proliferation, migration and invasion experiments.

resultsSEMA6D expression was significantly lower in ccRCC tissue compared to that in normal tissue. Comparative analysis of our results with data from online databases revealed that the expression level of SEMA6D in ccRCC tissue correlated with the clinical stage and pathological grade of ccRCC. Furthermore, higher SEMA6D expression was associated with improved quality of life of patients with ccRCC. In addition, the diagnostic value of SEMA6D was confirmed using data from two Gene Expression Omnibus ccRCC databases. The results showed that SEMA6D can be used as a predictor for ccRCC diagnosis, with an area under the curve of 0.9642.

conclusionSEMA6D may serve as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for ccRCC.
